ACER will communicate with you by email throughout your booking. Please ensure you provide a valid, monitored email address and monitor your email regularly. Please follow any instructions provided.
To avoid spam filters, add frv@acer.org to your contact list as a trusted contact. Allow 3 days for a response during busy periods.
When completing online registration, you must upload a recent photo of yourself. This photo will appear on your Admission Ticket as means of identification and will be available to FRV throughout the recruitment and testing process.
Please provide a passport-quality photo showing head and shoulders against a clear background. This photo may be taken by yourself but should show you in a professional manner. Scanned copies of driver's licences are not accepted. Photos are uploaded when you register for the test with ACER.
The photo provided will be checked for compliance and either approved or declared unsuitable. If it is unsuitable, you be emailed and asked to resubmit a new photo before your exam. Failure to provide an acceptable photo will affect your ability to sit the test.
If you are sitting the WST via remote proctoring, you will also be required to upload a photo of your valid Australian government issued ID document, i.e. passport or driver’s licence.
Requests for concession consideration are handled directly by FRV. ACER follows FRV's instructions on these matters.
If you are unable to attend your booked test session within 10 business days of your start time, you may be eligible to pay a late reschedule fee of $100 (incl. GST) to reschedule your test within the test window (subject to availability). Reasons for late rescheduling may include illness or technology issues. No rescheduling is permitted after your scheduled start time. All tests must be completed within the fixed test window. Email frv@acer.org for more information.
The fee to sit the Written Selection Test (WST) is $238.00 (incl. GST) and is paid directly to ACER at the time of booking through the ACER portal.
Rescheduling is permitted up until the closing date for registrations. You may choose to change your assessment date, time or mode of testing. You can make your own changes within the ACER Portal. Please note, due to high demand options may be limited as bookings are provided on a first-in, first-served basis.
If you decide to cancel your booking, you must do so at least 10 business days before your booked session.
